  Wouter Bessels said he was able to track down a higher-generation copy of the tape for the Mannheim recording. 


  I did an A/B comparison of the new release with the T.Tree copy I had, and there was a modest improvement, I wouldn't discount it as "insignificant". As you say, the T.Tree was already pretty good to begin with in this instance.
  The accompanying artwork and booklet and nicely produced with a lot of contemporary news materials, and more importantly, the band actually get royalties on this release, unlike the T.Tree bootleg.




  Posted by:phroditehermaTree 30 Reims and Tree 13 Mannheim come already from excellent sources. Major increase in quality can't be expected. Especially because almost certainly no new (better) sources were used. If there is an improvement at all, it's insignificant.
